I see that you believe that I am a bad influence on these kids. As I said before, I do not discuss these things with the boys.

....in the few words you posted on FR your attitude clearly came threw. These young adults are not stupid and most can read people like a book!

And, their attitudes and harm have been done by their parents and society

....and isn't it quite possible you may be adding to the damage all ready done.

May I suggest to you that you also obtain a similar job, and you will have the chance to do what you advise others?

I do, I teach Sunday school and a great deal of my lessons are on daily life, and future expectations !

Anyway, what is not changed is the attitudes displayed by so many American women that renders them harmful to the American male.

Could you just explain what these attitudes are and do all or most males share your views?

Hey GrandMom, Mr. Myers sounds like a guy dedicated to helping young men who need help. And he is entitled to his own observations and conclusions about the effect of today's culture on today's women. Any man who grew up during the fifties and sixties and seventies can see that there were enormous changes in the way women look at religion, jobs, families, dating, sex, etc. I'm with Mr. Myers. I don't think many of these changes, on average, have been beneficial to either men or women. There's nothing damaging about making that observation. And it could just be that Mr. Myers will help his young charges to think about some (important) things they might not have otherwise!

"These young adults are not stupid and most can read people like a book."

These "young adults" are boys 14 to 18, with the standard teenage viewpoints. They form their own opinions, and look at the older folks as outdated and antiquated. They think that the older folks have nothing to do with their generation.

"....and isn't it quite possible you may be adding to the damage all ready done."

I don't think so. They think I am very old-fashioned and hopeless.

"I do, I teach Sunday school and a great deal of my lessons are on daily life, and future expectations !"

You spend maybe an hour a week with kids in Sunday School. No,ma am, it just isn't the same thing at all.

"Could you just explain what these attitudes are and do all or most males share your views?"

The attitudes involve a new morality or lack of it. Many of these kids don't know what sex they prefer. Many of them just go both ways and call it even.

They think that having sex with a good acquaintance is the accepted thing, which it is to them, and their parents. Kids start having sex almost from puberty, and many girls are single moms while they are in grade/high school.

The boys talk about single moms who expect to have another child before they graduate from high school. I see young girls walking out from one of the local schools who are carrying two kids. They have a nursery at the school.

Girls are being taught that boys are not really the ideal mate. Lesbianism and homosexuality is taught and practiced in our grade and high schools and colleges.

The youngsters of today don't expect to get married, if at all, until much later in life. They practice the hedonistic life style, and let the devil take the hind most.

Do you want more elucidation?

You asked me what other men think. I forgot to reply to that question. You will have to ask them. But some of the replies by guys on this thread should give you some idea how many men feel.
